Hi, great you are in the Philippines. How did you prepare yours ? as @cheft explained above, thats how the locals did it in siargao, with silli and 'Bi'vinegar, they loved it. it was sort of bland for me and i'd compare the taste to raw liver. do you enjoy it the same way? i wrote about my experience here.
